Jason Compton wrote in comp.sys.amiga.misc: All this is, is an announcement that says that Red Hat will sell Amiga's SDK through their web store. I confirmed with Red Hat's Melissa London (who confirmed it with execs within the company) that this is in no way an announcement of any agreement, alliance, partnership, or joint development agreement. This is, in effect, a press release that says "Our CD is on sale at RedHat.com." Don't let anyone tell you different.

Commodore always propagated Amiga as a game machine, and never
emphasized the benefits of its OS. (Sure, they 'pushed' their
crap PC line for 'serious work'. What a blindness!)

If you didn't noticed yet, there is something behind all that
AInc. does. Did you heard something about Elate, VP, Amiverse?
Because others did, not just the press-releases. |
